The true story of a giraffe's journey from the plains of Africa to the heart of post-Napoleonic France, this is a deft mixture of storytelling and history that brings to life the people and places of nineteenth-century Europe through the tale of one enchanting animal.This is the story of Zarafa, the Masai giraffe presented to Charles X of France in 1826, and how she captivated and inspired all those who came to see her. Allin describes the giraffe-inspired fashions of the day in this period of post-Revolutionary France.
